Zip and archive folder/sub folders

[Baswaraj Malage]

Hi Team

I would like to know how to zip and archive folders/subfolders/*.png files in pipeline script.

In my job workspace, I have a folder by name ScreenPrint which has 3 sub folders as chrome, firefox and phantom. Each sub folder would have .png files. So, I would like to zip and archive entire ScreenPrint folder with all subfolder/files to keep them separate for review. I did use below command which archived files but not separated by folders.

archiveArtifacts allowEmptyArchive: true, artifacts: 'screenprint/**', onlyIfSuccessful: true

When I looked @ https://jenkins.io/doc/pipeline/steps/pipeline-utility-steps/#code-zip-code-create-zip-file to zip folders/files but could not get exact pipeline syntax to zip.

zip zipFile: 'screen.zip', glob: '', dir:'', archive: true 

Looking for some guidance to zip the folders using pipeline syntax.

Thanks

glob is the ant style syntax to fetch you png files:

zip zipFile: 'screen.zip' archive: true dir: 'screenprint' glob: '**/*.png'

Else you may want to create a folder and copy all the file into it then zip it.

Thank you for your suggestions. However, I got below error on running zip bat command.

zip zipFile: 'screen.zip' archive: true dir: 'screenprint' glob: '**/*.png' 

'zip' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

which version of Jenkins are you using? zip was introduced not so long ago.

Also make sure you call it inside a node {}

Hey Jerome

I'm using latest stable version of Jenkins and my pipeline node script looks as below.

node {

stage('checkout') {

git '...........github link...........'

}

stage('build and test') {

bat 'npm install'

bat 'npm run test'            

}

stage('archive') {

bat 'zip zipFile: \'screen.zip\' archive: true dir: \'screenprint\' glob: \'**/*.png\''            

}      

}

Thanks

Baswaraj

No need to use 'bat' command, there is a zip command directly. Change:

bat 'zip zipFile: \'screen.zip\' archive: true dir: \'screenprint\' glob: \'**/*.png\''

for this: 

zip zipFile: 'screen.zip' archive: true dir: 'screenprint' glob: '**/*.png'

it should work directly

Thanks Jerome for all your suggestion. But, no luck to get files in zip. I did use zip directly (I had to separate commands with ,) but did not work for me. I might be missing something or jenkins yet to support this feature.

zip zipFile: 'screen.zip', archive: true, dir: 'screenprint', glob: '**/*.png'

zip zipFile: "x64\\Release\\${APPLY_TAG}.zip", dir: "x64\\Release\\${APPLY_TAG}";

archiveArtifacts artifacts: "x64\\Release\\${APPLY_TAG}.zip", fingerprint: false, allowEmptyArchive: false, onlyIfSuccessful: true;

This work for me, make sure your path are adapted to the platform (Unix vs Windows). Not sure about the wildcard, may want to try without and a simple file to see which part is messing around. I have tryt the archiving of zip command yet. I do the archiving manually after.

Hi , 

I'm looking for exclude option, looks like exclude is not working, can anyone share the working syntax for exclude with zip step?
